That's backwards. You were testing an int with a String test and it failed *because* it wasn't viewing everything as a string. So create a Zipcode datatype that allows for +4, use a regex or type-specific validator and a converter, and you have your "rich" domain model. Putting a zipcode in an integer is not a good idea, even if it *is* just for the US. d. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never miss an email again!
